    @virginmedia So. Would you like me to provide details of the complaint? My reference number maybe? Somewhere to direct message? Or do I just waste a huge amount of time hanging on the line to get back to where I started?

    Hey @virginmedia when are people in the CR0 postcode going to get their Internet back? It's been down since lunch? Any ETA? Need to plan if I need to go to the office tomorrow instead.

    @virginmedia is there a outage in woolwich Se18 my broadband isn't working and I can't even load up your website to try and get help?

  • MiaZagica
    Baltazarka (@MiaZagica) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

  • SustyPhilC
    Phil ******* (@SustyPhilC) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia any idea what’s going on with the network please? Can you at least make a statement? It’s been down since around 2am or thereabouts!

  • ranaraptor
    Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”

    Virgin Media - you've started with your poor connection bollocks again? It's been a good few month. You were doing well. #VirginMedia #SW11

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    My day off and I still cannot watch Amazon prime due to virgin media delivering a ****** service. I really think we need to switch providers now. Enough is enough.

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Callback should have happened days ago. Now the person on 150 says that you failed to complete a process. They then tried to miss-sell me an upgrade to my package. Still not fixed but "should be" in a few hours! I doubt it. Abysmal deceptive service.

    Beth (@bethcanadian) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia I came home to it working so whatever you did to fix it, thank you!

    @O2 There’s really no point as nothing ever changes! And when Virgin Media goes down (which happens far too often) I have zero means of communication. The price hike was the last straw really - time to move to another provider.
